<p>I only wrote the copy for the Cisco ads (two of them atleast, with my boss witting the third to make it a campaign. I&#8217;ll leave it up to you to decide who wrote which one). How it works is like this&#8211;they give you a set of 6 visuals, and you need to come up with an empathetic, sophisticated story around that visual, which you then generalize to get the copy.</p>
<p>For Eno, I conceived the idea and wrote that short line you see at the end.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While going through <a href="http://adsoftheworld.com/" target="_blank">adsoftheworld.com</a> today, I came across this kick-ass innovative site. It&#8217;s for an ad agency called Boone Oakley&#8211;a relatively unknown agency from North Carolina. But, the site is <em>so</em> innovative, I&#8217;m surprised they aren&#8217;t bigger. What they&#8217;ve done is that they&#8217;ve made their site using only inter-linked YouTube videos. So, typing in <a href="http://booneoakley.com" target="_blank">booneoakley.com</a> redirects you to their &#8216;homepage&#8217; which is in fact, a tongue in cheek animation. From there, you can navigate by using either the timeline, or a set of links. Don&#8217;t get what I&#8217;m saying? Here, let me put up their site here:</p>
<p align="center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="511" height="310" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Elo7WeIydh8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="511" height="310" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Elo7WeIydh8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Yeah, that <strong>is</strong> their site! Pretty neat I&#8217;d say. But, it does have one big drawback (which was pointed out by <a href="http://www.ankurb.info" target="_blank">Ankur</a>). Video content isn&#8217;t and can&#8217;t be indexed by search engines. So, effectively, that means zero search engine traffic for Boone Oakley.<br />
But then, when your work is as audacious (and effective) as the work they did for <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BA5ik9b4C8&amp;feature=related" target="_blank">Ruby Tuesday</a>, or as tongue in cheek as their site, do they really need that search engine traffic? Surely, word of mouth will be enough. Specially with such a kick-ass concept for a site! This really speaks volumes for their creativity, that most basic of prerequisites for n ad agency.<br />
Not only that, I feel (and my boss, like everyone else at Ogilvy I showed this site to, seconds that) that this site and the Ruby Tuesday campaign should be up for some serious Cannes recognition. Surely that&#8217;ll catapult these people into the big league. I really hope it does&#8230;in the meantime, enjoy the site, and if you like it, spread the cheer!</p>
<hr />Hahahaha! Check out their sitemap <a href="http://twitpic.com/6fps5" target="_blank">here</a>. Even <strong>that</strong> is damn hilarious!</p>
